    It is, since they get the +5 informative points.

    Its not exactly informative, since there was no discussion, and the link was there at the top of the page.

    We still could have read it if posted anonymously.

    Just lurk for awhile with your threshhold at 4 or 5, and notice which posts get mod'ed up. {NB. Watch out for "funny" -- funny mods don't help your karma, but downmods against "funny" do work against you. Going for +5 Funny is always a gamble, since some moderator won't get the joke.} Also, try posting comments in stories that have gone off the boil. They won't get mod'ed up, but they won't get mod'ed down either, and unmoderated posts seem to have some small positive effect on your karma -- though I haven't confirmed this, being quite happy with my own excellent karma.

    When you're ready, start posting for real. Be sure to read the discussion first, before you post your post. You don't want to be the second person to say something.

    When your karma reaches excellent, then you can think about some trolling. A good troll should get mod'ed up to +5 before it gets mod'ed down. Or you can try to go for the coveted 5 Funny.

    Final hints: Pro-Windows and anti-copying posts are best received in the "games" section, while anti-Windows and pro-copying posts are best received in the "YRO" section. Posts worshipping the sh*t from Steve Jobs's arsehole are best received in the "apple" section. Always tick the "post anonymously" box when posting hints for karma whoring.
